Hello to all , a fantastic place for gathering information of one of my all time favourite subjects.and hobbies . After a 10 year absence because of a new family and various other comitments , i find myself with the wonderous tool of the internet which wasn't readily available back in my earlier modeling to reference or get advice in those days.

I'm currently working on a tamiya challenger II kit , and although i'm pleased with my current progress , i'm looking for international suppliers ( with a good rep ) that ship internationally to New Zealand . Currently I looking for addons like packs and sacks for modern armor but would eventually like to find someone who can do both kits and PE addons.
Used to use verlinden here , but to pricey for me now. Any recommendations appreciated.

Thanks

Peter, first of all - Welcome to the site!

If you're into modern British armor, the choice is really quite simple Acuurate Armour . Not only does their own product range cover a LOT of British subjects (everything from bedrolls to full kits), they are one of the best companies to deal with in terms of efficiency.

They charge postage AT COST - no price gouging, also, as you're in NZ you won't (unlike others I can think of) be asked to contibute to the British tax system. When you look at their prices, there are two prices, as a NZ resident, you choose the cheaper.

Their on-line store can be accessed from the banner advert at the side of your screen

Have fun!

I second that.

Agreed AA service is second to none, never had any problems.

I've dealt with both Hobby Link Japan and Lucky Models (Hong Kong) with good results. I don't know if shipping is cheaper going to NZ than the US. Lucky Models has good prices and some of their after market stuff has free airmail (Legend, Voyager, LionRoar, ArmorScale, Bison, HobbyFan). One caution about Lucky is that you should be prepared for a long wait if the item is marked as "Available". The good thing is that they have no problem with canceling items when you run out of patience.

Accurate Armour is first rate and as Gary has stated, Lucky Model out of Hong Kong may be good for you as well. I've ordered from them a fair bit and have had great service.
